A police complaint, alleging religious sentiments being hurt, has been filed against filmmaker Anurag Kashyap

Days after its release, the second season of Sacred Games has landed in trouble. A police complaint has been filed against director Anurag Kashyap for allegedly "insulting religious beliefs" of the Sikh community in the web series.

Delhi BJP spokesperson Tajinder Pal Singh Bagga has reportedly filed a complaint against the director. Bagga has accused Kashyap of "intentionally and deliberately" depicting a scene "in which a character belonging to the Sikh community (played by Saif Ali Khan) removes his Kada and throws it away in a disrespectful and insulting manner".

Earlier today, MLA Manjinder S Sirsa also raised an objection to the said scene and accused the director of "criminal offence" of "spreading communal content, hurting religious sentiments and faiths of people and creating disharmony in the society".

It is to be noted that Kashyap directed the part revolving around Nawazuddin Siddiqui's Ganesh Gaitonde and not the story of Saif Ali Khan's Sartaj Singh, in which the scene in question features. The latter part was helmed by director Neeraj Ghaywan.

The second season of the web series had its premiere on August 15 earlier this month. The makers of the show and director Anurag Kashyap is yet to respond to the complaint.

Meanwhile, Kashyap had recently announced his decision to quit Twitter, sharing sentiments that he and his family had been receiving threats. The director had tweeted, "When your parents start to get calls and your daughter gets online threats you know that no one wants to talk. There isn’t going to be reason or rationale. Thugs will rule and thuggery will be the new way of life. Congratulations everyone on this new India & hope you all thrive."

His last tweet was, "Wish you all the happiness and success. This would be my last tweet as i leave twitter. When i won't be allowed to speak my mind without fear then i would rather not speak at all. Goodbye."
